Japan-related Activities for Asian Pacific American Heritage Celebration

There are numerous events coming up surrounding the lunar new year and the Asian Pacific American Heritage Celebration. You can learn about all the activities on this flier, but here are a few of the more explicitly Japan-related activities:

There will be a Japanese Tea Ceremony demonstration, led by two tea masters, on Tuesday, Feb. 9th from 3-4pm in Kirkhof Room 0072. If you've never had the chance to watch the tea ceremony performed, it is quite an experience.

The Asian New Year Festival will be held that same week, on Thursday, Feb. 11th from 6-9pm in the Kirkhof Grand River Room. It will include Asian food and many performances, including a momotarĂ´ skit by the members of the JCA. It should be fun, and I hope to see you there.
